I make messy problems easier to act on.

I started learning how to configure automations in high school, about 25 years ago. I bounced around jobs for a few years, then started working with my dad on video editing when I was 23.

In 2014, we founded a radon mitigation business. We grew it from our first job to more than 300 jobs a year by our fourth year. I built our first three websites before we hired a professional designer, which turned out to be incredibly valuable.

Over the years, I learned a broad range of skills, from programming and web development to running a contracting business end to end. I learned to build systems, delegate tasks, and ask friends for help when I got stuck on things like accounting, taxes, and banking.

I also learned to treat mistakes as data points: understand what happened, then build a system to help prevent it from happening again.

Life has a way of changing its own trajectory. In 2019, I was struck by a car while walking home. Two years later, complications from the accident led me to leave the radon business. I spent the next few years healing and figuring out what I could still do.

I’m unusually skilled at seeing how things connect, finding gaps others might miss, and building practical systems to solve problems. I’m also morally conflicted about how AI is being used in the world. I’m trying to find a middle ground: using it to help people who don’t know how to use it themselves, but whose lives and businesses are already being affected by it.
